Medical. " Is there no hope ? the sick man said; The silent doctor shook bia head." « While there is life there's hope, he cried " 2Egroto,dum animas est, spes est." j DR L. L. SMITH, (The only legally qualified medical man advertising} consults — On all affections of the Nervous System (no matter from what cause arising). On all broken-down constitutions. On all diseases arising from early indiscretions. On Gout. On Rheumatism, TTN these colonies, those excesses which JL we have indulged in "hot youth ' tell upon us with fearful interest. Ot?x regrets are useless, our repining? futiie. The sole idea should be tha chances we possess of remedying tbe ilia we already have, or combating the effecfg likely to result. Hide it as he may, put on as good an exterior as he can, still is ihe victim conscious that he is a living lie, and hat sooner or later his vices will discover him to the world. Our Faith, our obligations to society at large, the welfare of _s * future offspring, and the duty, we owo to ourselves forbid procrastination, and point out to us, not to war *" c . ravages break out in our constitutions. Before negociating with a merchant, before engaging with a confidential clerk, before employing a barrister, a careful man makes enquiries as to their standing, their length of occupancy or residence ; and, in the case of a legal adviser, both as to his legal qualifications and as to his capabilities of transacting the individual business he consults him upon. Strange to say, however, in the selection of a medical man, the sufferer frequently omits these necessary precautions and without regard so the fitness, qualification, experience and ability for the particular ailment requiring treatment, he consults the nearest, man, whose experience and practice, perhaps, lies in quite an opposite direction. Is it astonishing tbat : o many are driven mad, are ruined in health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope, and money? .Have I not for years pointed out to them that /, Dr Z. Z. Smith, am the only legally qualified medical man advertising in the colonies? Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, tnese very quacks, and exposed the various nostrums they sre selling, — such as Phosphodyne, Essence of Life, &c. — and had them analysed and found them co consist of " Burnt Sugar and flavoring matter," and the certificates I have proved to be all forgeries. It is for I this reason tbat I step out of the ethics of the profession and advertise, to give those . who require the services of my branch an 1 j opportunity of knowing they can consult I a legally qualified man, and one, moreover, 1 ! who has made this his especial study, Dr L. L. Smith is the only legally 1 qualified medical man advertising, and he j has been in Melbourne twenty-four ;years in full practice on • ! Nervous Diseases Loss ot Power & Debility Syphilitic Affections Want of Condition Gout and Rheumatism \ Dr L. L. Smith can be consulted by letter — Fee, £1.
